Marlin Wins!

"Not all the details are in, but apparently the captain began backing
down on the huge fish, a common practice in big-game fishing when a fish
is taking line. He puts the boat in reverse to chase the fish."

"One
commenter on Marlin Magazine's Facebook post who apparently had some
knowledge of the incident said that the captain fell as he was backing
down on the fish at full throttle. The boat took on too much water and,
finally, there was no correcting the situation."
